720p/30 fps PTZ camera capable of transmitting both analogue video and HD IP images over your existing
analogue coax infrastructure

Overview

The SNC-ZP550 Network Pan-Tilt-Zoom camera features IPELA Hybrid – Sony's IP over-coax technology – allowing
customers to migrate easily to HD IP video surveillance systems, utilising existing analogue infrastructure, such as
cables, power supplies, switchers, controllers and monitors, thus minimising investment in new infrastructure. IPELA
Hybrid offers a cost effective and environmentally friendly installation.

The SNC-ZP550 offers Dual Streaming, which can feature any combination of three industry-standard compression

Features

Dual streaming with any combination of industry-standard codecs

The SNC-ZP550 supports dual streaming with any combination of three industry-standard compression
formats – JPEG, the best choice for high-quality still images, MPEG-4, the format that provides clear moving
images efficiently over limited-bandwidth networks, and H.264, the alternative for severely limited­bandwidth networks, providing twice the efficiency of MPEG-4. This means that the camera can use the best
compression format for every kind of data.

•

Exmor® CMOS® Sensor yields improved image acquisition

Derived from Sony's broadcast product range, the "Exmor" CMOS sensor is one of the highest quality
available, meaning high resolution images with low noise characteristics for improved image acquisition.

•

Powerful 28x optical zoom capability for enhanced tracking

The SNC-ZP550's 28x optical zoom delivers greater flexibility in finding and tracking targets.

•

Day/Night function for optimised images in all light conditions

The Day/Night function switches the camera between Day (colour) and Night (B/W) modes, so that in Night
mode the camera becomes sensitive to near-IR light and can reproduce images not visible to the naked
eye.
